Acts 13:45 - Additional Comments

Here the Jews had proclaiming in the synagogue for ages, and Paul and Barnabas walk in and draw crowds like they'd never seen. Instead of seeing truth, they could only feed their selfish desires, and so fought to destroy the credibility of Paul.
This rejection of the message of Paul was a fatal decision to them. How many don't realize this is a matter of life and death. Rejection might as well be suicide.
